Body

'Body' explores the theme of duality. Using photographs of their own bodies as a starting point, Marthe Bodil Vos and Lieve Maria Eek (Maria Bodil) trained an AI model. From this process, new images emerged: fragmented, distorted, and at the same time intimate and vulnerable. The process moved back and forth between personal photography and AI and through various manipulations and analog printing techniques back into the machine. This resulted in a series in which the body is continuously re-examined and reconstructed in an ongoing dialogue between each other, the machine, and the physical image.

Twins

The film 'Twins' approaches mirroring from a different perspective. In this poetic short film, we follow two identical twin sisters trying to understand themselves through the other. While swimming together, they move like echoes of one another, like reflections on water. Comparison, admiration, estrangement, and doubt intertwine. The film explores what identity means for these twins in relation to each other.

Although the photo series and the film were created separately, they belong to the same universe. They reflect themes that define Maria Bodil’s practice: femininity, intimacy, their relationship to each other, the act of looking and being looked at and the thin boundary between self and other.
